  • A Rally Song, Poem


    We won’t avert our gaze, ignore what’s in sight,
    Our freedom is threatened; we must stand and fight.
    For our children, ourselves, we will rise and be bold,
    Together as one, our story unfolds.

    In democracy’s name, no ruler shall reign,
    We’ll stand firm and strong, through struggle and pain.
    When push comes to shove, we’ll hold to our aim,
    For our nation we’ll battle, igniting the flame.
